Comments

This class rocks. I learned how to build my own dam the first week! Some lectures are a bit difficult to understand (Pyramids for Dummies was one of these), but overall, I really liked this class.

Life at Campus

We have sports and educational clubs that will suit most students. Campus is a large area with a huge park as the center point. There is easy access to all accommodations and everything has been re-vamped over the last two years. So, if you like football, soccer, rocket science or anything in between, we got something for you. If you want to know more about campus life, you can call one of our trained students and they will be glad to help in any way they can.
